Firstly I'd like to thank all the visitors over the weekend for their attendance to our best ever show to date.
We tried to raise the bar in the quality of our exhibit. Any feed back is most welcome.
Like anything, it owes it's success to all the hard working committee and helpers that reached the end result we strived for.
The visitors choice for the 'Best Tree' worked very well and kept all the voters eager to pick their favourite.It was taken by a close count by Jim's magnificant Sticky Wattle that greeted everyone at the entrance.

Here's just a sample of our show pics.

Congratulations,
Looks like some excellent trees in your exhibition and those responsible for setting up displays deserve high praise for their attention to detail, I am sure that you do not go to all that effort and not take lots of pictures. I look foreward to seeing some more of them.
